Jeremiah 32
The
word
that
came
to
Jeremiah
from
the
Lord
in
the
tenth
year
of
Zedekiah
king
of
Judah,
which
was
the
eighteenth
year
of
Nebuchadrezzar.
2 For
then
the
king
of
Babylon's
army
a
besieged
Jerusalem:
and
Jeremiah
the
prophet
was
shut
up
in
the
court
of
the
prison,
which
was
in
the
king
of
Judah's
house.
3 For
Zedekiah
king
of
Judah
had
shut
him
up,
saying,
Wherefore
dost
thou
prophesy,
and
say,
Thus
saith
the
Lord,
Behold,
I
will
give
this
city
into
the
hand
of
the
king
of
Babylon,
and
he
shall
take
it;
4 And
Zedekiah
king
of
Judah
shall
not
escape
out
of
the
hand
of
the
Chaldeans,
but
shall
surely
be
delivered
into
the
hand
of
the
king
of
Babylon,
and
shall
speak
with
him
mouth
to
mouth,
and
his
eyes
shall
behold
his
eyes;
5 And
he
shall
lead
Zedekiah
to
a
Babylon,
and
there
shall
he
be
until
I
visit
him,
saith
the
Lord:
though
ye
fight
with
the
Chaldeans,
ye
shall
not
prosper?
6 And
Jeremiah
said,
The
word
of
the
Lord
came
unto
me,
saying,
7 Behold,
Hanameel
the
son
of
Shallum
thine
uncle
shall
come
unto
thee,
saying,
Buy
thee
my
field
that
is
in
Anathoth:
for
the
right
of
redemption
is
thine
to
buy
it.
8 So
Hanameel
mine
uncle's
son
came
to
me
in
the
court
of
the
prison
according
to
the
word
of
the
Lord,
and
said
unto
me,
Buy
my
field,
I
pray
thee,
that
is
in
Anathoth,
which
is
in
the
country
of
Benjamin:
for
the
right
of
inheritance
is
thine,
and
the
redemption
is
thine;
buy
it
for
thyself.
Then
I
knew
that
this
was
the
word
of
the
Lord.
9 And
I
bought
the
field
of
Hanameel
my
uncle's
son,
that
was
in
Anathoth,
and
a
weighed
him
the
money,
even
seventeen
shekels
of
silver.
10 And
I
subscribed
the
evidence,
and
sealed
it,
and
took
witnesses,
and
weighed
him
the
money
in
the
balances.
11 So
I
took
the
evidence
of
the
purchase,
both
that
which
was
sealed
according
to
the
law
and
custom,
and
that
which
was
open:
12 And
I
gave
the
evidence
of
the
purchase
unto
a
Baruch
the
son
of
Neriah,
the
son
of
Maaseiah,
in
the
sight
of
Hanameel
mine
uncle's
son,
and
in
the
presence
of
the
witnesses
that
subscribed
the
b
book
of
the
purchase,
before
all
the
Jews
that
sat
in
the
court
of
the
prison.
13 And
I
charged
Baruch
before
them,
saying,
14 Thus
saith
the
Lord
of
hosts,
the
God
of
Israel;
Take
these
a
evidences,
this
evidence
of
the
purchase,
both
which
is
sealed,
and
this
evidence
which
is
open;
and
put
them
in
an
earthen
vessel,
that
they
may
continue
many
days.
15 For
thus
saith
the
Lord
of
hosts,
the
God
of
Israel;
Houses
and
fields
and
vineyards
shall
be
possessed
again
in
this
land.
16 Now
when
I
had
delivered
the
evidence
of
the
purchase
unto
Baruch
the
son
of
Neriah,
I
prayed
unto
the
Lord,
saying,
17 Ah
Lord
God!
behold,
thou
hast
made
the
heaven
and
the
earth
by
thy
great
power
and
stretched
out
arm,
and
there
is
nothing
too
a
hard
for
thee:
18 Thou
shewest
lovingkindness
unto
thousands,
and
recompensest
the
iniquity
of
the
fathers
into
the
bosom
of
their
children
after
them:
the
Great,
the
Mighty
God,
the
Lord
of
hosts,
is
his
name,
19 Great
in
counsel,
and
mighty
in
work:
for
thine
eyes
are
open
upon
all
the
ways
of
the
sons
of
men:
to
a
give
every
one
according
to
his
b
ways,
and
according
to
the
fruit
of
his
doings:
20 Which
hast
set
signs
and
wonders
in
the
land
of
Egypt,
even
unto
this
day,
and
in
Israel,
and
among
other
men;
and
hast
made
thee
a
name,
as
at
this
day;
21 And
hast
brought
forth
thy
people
Israel
out
of
the
land
of
Egypt
with
signs,
and
with
wonders,
and
with
a
strong
hand,
and
with
a
stretched
out
arm,
and
with
great
terror;
22 And
hast
given
them
this
land,
which
thou
didst
swear
to
their
fathers
to
give
them,
a
land
flowing
with
milk
and
honey;
23 And
they
came
in,
and
possessed
it;
but
they
obeyed
not
thy
voice,
neither
walked
in
thy
law;
they
have
done
nothing
of
all
that
thou
commandedst
them
to
do:
therefore
thou
hast
caused
all
this
evil
to
come
upon
them:
24 Behold
the
mounts,
they
are
come
unto
the
city
to
take
it;
and
the
city
is
given
into
the
hand
of
the
Chaldeans,
that
fight
against
it,
because
of
the
sword,
and
of
the
famine,
and
of
the
pestilence:
and
what
thou
hast
spoken
is
come
to
pass;
and,
behold,
thou
seest
it.
25 And
thou
hast
said
unto
me,
O
Lord
God,
Buy
thee
the
field
for
money,
and
take
witnesses;
for
the
city
is
given
into
the
hand
of
the
Chaldeans.
26 Then
came
the
word
of
the
Lord
unto
Jeremiah,
saying,
27 Behold,
I
am
the
Lord,
the
God
of
all
flesh:
is
there
any
thing
too
hard
for
me?
28 Therefore
thus
saith
the
Lord;
Behold,
I
will
give
this
city
into
the
hand
of
the
Chaldeans,
and
into
the
hand
of
Nebuchadrezzar
king
of
Babylon,
and
he
shall
take
it:
29 And
the
Chaldeans,
that
fight
against
this
city,
shall
come
and
set
fire
on
this
city,
and
burn
it
with
the
houses,
upon
whose
a
roofs
they
have
offered
incense
unto
Baal,
and
poured
out
drink
offerings
unto
other
gods,
to
provoke
me
to
anger.
30 For
the
children
of
Israel
and
the
children
of
Judah
have
only
done
evil
before
me
from
their
youth:
for
the
children
of
Israel
have
only
provoked
me
to
a
anger
with
the
work
of
their
hands,
saith
the
Lord.
31 For
this
city
hath
been
to
me
as
a
provocation
of
mine
anger
and
of
my
fury
from
the
day
that
they
built
it
even
unto
this
day;
that
I
should
remove
it
from
before
my
face,
32 Because
of
all
the
evil
of
the
children
of
Israel
and
of
the
children
of
Judah,
which
they
have
done
to
provoke
me
to
anger,
they,
their
kings,
their
princes,
their
priests,
and
their
prophets,
and
the
men
of
Judah,
and
the
inhabitants
of
Jerusalem.
33 And
they
have
turned
unto
me
the
a
back,
and
not
the
face:
though
I
taught
them,
rising
up
early
and
teaching
them,
yet
they
have
not
hearkened
to
receive
instruction.
34 But
they
set
their
abominations
in
a
the
house,
which
is
called
by
my
name,
to
defile
it.
35 And
they
built
the
high
places
of
Baal,
which
are
in
the
valley
of
the
son
of
Hinnom,
to
cause
their
sons
and
their
daughters
to
pass
through
the
a
fire
unto
Molech;
which
I
commanded
them
not,
neither
came
it
into
my
mind,
that
they
should
do
this
abomination,
to
cause
Judah
to
sin.
36 And
now
therefore
thus
saith
the
Lord,
the
God
of
Israel,
concerning
this
city,
whereof
ye
say,
It
shall
be
delivered
into
the
hand
of
the
king
of
Babylon
by
the
sword,
and
by
the
famine,
and
by
the
pestilence;
37 Behold,
I
will
a
gather
them
out
of
all
countries,
whither
I
have
driven
them
in
mine
anger,
and
in
my
fury,
and
in
great
wrath;
and
I
will
b
bring
them
again
unto
this
place,
and
I
will
cause
them
to
dwell
safely:
38 And
they
shall
be
my
people,
and
I
will
be
their
God:
39 And
I
will
give
them
one
a
heart,
and
one
way,
that
they
may
fear
me
for
ever,
for
the
b
good
of
them,
and
of
their
children
after
them:
40 And
I
will
make
an
a
everlasting
b
covenant
with
them,
that
I
will
not
turn
away
from
them,
to
do
them
good;
but
I
will
put
my
fear
in
their
hearts,
that
they
shall
not
depart
from
me.
41 Yea,
I
will
rejoice
over
them
to
do
them
good,
and
I
will
plant
them
in
this
land
assuredly
with
my
whole
heart
and
with
my
whole
soul.
42 For
thus
saith
the
Lord;
Like
as
I
have
brought
all
this
great
evil
upon
this
people,
so
will
I
bring
upon
them
all
the
good
that
I
have
promised
them.
43 And
fields
shall
be
bought
in
this
land,
whereof
ye
say,
It
is
desolate
without
man
or
beast;
it
is
given
into
the
hand
of
the
Chaldeans.
44 Men
shall
buy
fields
for
money,
and
subscribe
evidences,
and
a
seal
them,
and
take
witnesses
in
the
land
of
Benjamin,
and
in
the
places
about
Jerusalem,
and
in
the
cities
of
Judah,
and
in
the
cities
of
the
mountains,
and
in
the
cities
of
the
b
valley,
and
in
the
cities
of
the
south:
for
I
will
cause
their
c
captivity
to
return,
saith
the
Lord.
